City police will “happily ventilate any parked vehicles with animals inside” in hot weather

Wrexham’s Inspector Luke Hughes has a special summer offer, asking the public to call in if they see animals trapped in hot cars.

The information came as part of the regular policing update, that also notes a recall to prison of a “deeply unpleasant male” and how “occupants of Audi A4 vehicle” loaded a bike into the rear of their car and drove off in an apparent theft.

The full update is below:

Good afternoon all, another beautiful day in our glorious City Town, the weather has been most kind in recent weeks, but not everyone will appreciate this… please keep an eye on the more vulnerable members of our community, maybe individuals that are less mobile or elderly. Please consider what neighbourly things you can do to help. Also consider the welfare of animals in this weather. Dogs walking on hot pavement etc and of course don’t forget our summer “special officer”, we will happily ventilate any parked vehicles with animals inside by happily “opening” all your windows, just give us a quick call…

I’m not sure how long the warm weather will last, but back in the olden days we used to call this summer… so hopefully for the next few months at least, then cold white stuff used to fall out of the sky, I think that was winter, not Snowmaggeddon or Burnt Britain or other excitable headlines the press may use!
